PPEM must be an integer on hinted fonts.

Check ID: <FontBakeryCheck:com.google.fonts/check/integer_ppem_if_hinted>
🔥 Bellefair-Regular.ttf

    This is a hinted font, so it must have bit 3 set on the flags of the head table, so that PPEM values will be rounded into an integer value.

    This can be accomplished by using the 'gftools fix-hinting' command:

    # create virtualenv
    python3 -m venv venv
    # activate virtualenv

Check if each glyph has the recommended amount of contours.

Check ID: <FontBakeryCheck:com.google.fonts/check/contour_count>
⚠️ Bellefair-Regular.ttf
  • ⚠️ WARN

    This check inspects the glyph outlines and detects the total number of contours in each of them. The expected values are infered from the typical ammounts of contours observed in a large collection of reference font families. The divergences listed below may simply indicate a significantly different design on some of your glyphs. On the other hand, some of these may flag actual bugs in the font such as glyphs mapped to an incorrect codepoint. Please consider reviewing the design and codepoint assignment of these to make sure they are correct.

    The following glyphs do not have the recommended number of contours:

    - Glyph name: uni00AD	Contours detected: 1	Expected: 0
    
    - Glyph name: Racute	Contours detected: 2	Expected: 3
    
    - Glyph name: Rcommaaccent	Contours detected: 2	Expected: 3
    
    - Glyph name: Rcaron	Contours detected: 2	Expected: 3
    
    - Glyph name: Racute	Contours detected: 2	Expected: 3
    
    - Glyph name: Rcaron	Contours detected: 2	Expected: 3

    This happens a lot when points are not extremes, which is usually bad. However, fixing this alert by adding points on extremes may do more harm than good, especially with italics, calligraphic-script, handwriting, rounded and other fonts. So it is common to ignore this message. [code: points-out-of-bounds]
